George Karl, legendary Seattle Super Sonics coach one of two coaches to guide the Seattle Super Sonics to the NBA finals, will soon be a Hall Of Famer.
Karl is the 6th winningest NBA coach, Lenny Wilkins, who coached the Sonics to a title in 1979, is one of only 5 NBA coaches with more wins than Karl in the league.
Karl coached the Sonics for 7 years. He was extremely popular with the fans. I believe that he also had an interest in ICON, a Seattle based telecom, where I worked in the mid to late 1990s.
Karl also coached at Golden State, Cleveland, Milwaukee, Denver, and Sacramento.
Former Seattle Storm great Swin Cash will also be inducted.
It's about time, he deserves it. Now I hope we get an NBA team again.
